River Description
Virginia Whitewater, Roger Corbett
This is a whitewater run through a remote beautiful gorge. Challenges include ledges, sloping
ledges and Alder thickets at high water. This river has the unfortunate distinction of being one of
the few VA rivers where a paddling fatality has occurred. There is a hiking trail that crosses the
river frequently for scouting and rescue. It's a beautiful hike as well.
